Perempuan Jepang kedua yang menuntaskan Seven Summits; meninggal dalam bencana Everest 1996.

Yasuko Namba (7 February 1949 – 11 May 1996) was the second Japanese woman, after Junko Tabei, to complete the Seven Summits. She worked for FedEx in Japan while climbing Kilimanjaro (1982), Aconcagua (1984), Denali (1985), Elbrus (1992), Vinson (1993) and Carstensz Pyramid (1994). Everest was her final summit: she reached the top with Rob Hall's Adventure Consultants team in May 1996 and died in the storm known as the 1996 Everest disaster.
